Default new bow on a budget

Looking for a new bow and i am on a budget. Speed can be a good
thing but accuracy and having a bow that is smooth and quiet to
shot is more important to me.


THANKS FOR ANY HELP

Go to your local pro shop and have them set you up.

Tell them you only have so much you can spend.

Buy a used bow. I did and paid 40% of what a new one cost.

Brian's tip of the day...save your money or get a used bow such as a hoyt xtec, or mathews LX.

I would have to agree with going used. But be careful and understand what a new bow is going to run so you don't pay too much for a used one. I saw a usedMathews LX last week and they wanted $600.00 for it. I thought that was a bit pricy. 400 maybe, but I think that bow goes for high 600's or low 700's brand new.
